Immortal Reincarnation Tribulation

Chapter 82 Level Monster

At this moment, the lion-headed demonic beast was suspended in the air. It immediately raised its head and roared, and the sound waves rolled out instantly, causing the void to distort.

"The aura of a Nascent Soul... This is the aura of a Nascent Soul!"

"It's a level 10 magical beast!"

"Impossible! How could a level ten magical beast be controlled by a Golden Core cultivator like us? Even the highest-level demon-subduing formation couldn't do it!"

Upon the appearance of this beast, the group of gray-robed elders, whose faces had remained calm until now, were all moved. Their eyes were filled with disbelief as they looked at the demonic beast. This had overturned their thinking. Although they were elders of the Illusion Cloud Sect, they had never heard of such a thing before.

Fang Tian took a deep breath, looked at Ye Qingyun with a complicated expression, but did not make a move.

Ghost Chariot, who had been sitting calmly on the sidelines, suddenly showed horror in his eyes, and his mouth twitched. If this was really a decisive battle, the outcome was predictable, something he had never anticipated.

The shock in the eyes of the other cultivators in the vassal state gradually faded, turning into fear.

Upon seeing this, the people of the Fire Feather Kingdom were initially delighted, but after a moment, their expressions became complicated, and they sighed. Clearly, this alone was not enough to change their minds.

"Go!" Ye Qingyun ignored everyone else, quickly raised his hand and pointed, shouting in a low voice.

The ferocious beast roared again, its wings flashed, and it hurtled towards a light screen. Its speed was so great that no one could catch a trace of its flight.

A loud "boom" suddenly rang out.

The Dragon-Trapping Formation, which had been as stable as Mount Tai, began to shake violently under the sudden impact of the beast. It looked as if it was about to shatter, but it did not collapse. After a while, the spiritual runes on it slowly began to move, showing signs of being able to mend itself.

Just then, the lion-headed monster's eyes flashed with ferocity. It seemed that it had become enraged by its failure to break through the light barrier in one fell swoop, and a roar unlike any it had ever heard before erupted.

The sound seemed to contain some kind of energy, causing all the cultivators below the Foundation Establishment stage to feel their chests churning and spit out a large mouthful of blood. Even the Foundation Establishment experts turned pale and could only forcefully circulate their magic power to barely protect their bodies.

Even a Golden Core cultivator's brow twitched wildly when he looked at this beast.

After the demonic beast roared, its two claws shot out like lightning, reaching into the light barrier of the great formation. With a sudden, forceful tearing motion, the dragon-trapping formation was ripped open by the beast, creating a gash several meters long.

A glint flashed in Ye Qingyun's eyes. With a sway of his body, he stepped onto the beast's back. With a tap of his foot, the demonic beast carried Ye Qingyun, transforming into a streak of light and rushing straight towards the crack in the great formation, disappearing into the distance in an instant.

"Brother He, if we don't leave now, when will we?" A hurried voice suddenly came from outside the formation, and then there was no more sound.

He Yinghua's expression changed, realizing that Ye Qingyun's call to him at this moment was not entirely well-intentioned, but most likely intended to distract the Huanyun Sect members.

However, a moment later, he made up his mind, and with a burst of light, he shot towards the crack without hesitation.

He Yinghua and his companion disappeared without a trace in just a few breaths, without any obstruction from others.

The other Golden Core cultivators from the Fire Feather Kingdom exchanged glances, gave bitter smiles, and abandoned their plans to escape.

Since they remained motionless, the Foundation Establishment and Qi Refining cultivators behind them naturally dared not make a single move either.

After a while, the cracks in the great formation that had been torn open were repaired as before. Since the appearance of that terrifying level 10 demonic beast, none of the cultivators of the Illusion Cloud Sect had moved an inch.

The ghost warrior's expression turned rather grim upon seeing this, but he didn't say anything.

"It's not a true level ten magical beast, it's still a bit short, but it's not something we can handle. We don't need to concern ourselves with this matter. Let the ancestor decide when he returns." After a long while, Fang Tian withdrew his gaze, sighed, and slowly said.

……

Kongsang Sect was originally a paradise of green mountains and clear waters, a place where the spirit of heaven and earth was concentrated. Now it has become a scene of devastation, with slaughter everywhere. The air is filled with the stench of blood, which has covered up the original fragrance. Corpses are everywhere, and blood mist fills the sky. Killing, screams, and despair are like a nightmare, filling the hearts of everyone in Kongsang Sect.

The mountain gate formed by the two enormous mulberry leaves had collapsed, and the protective array that had enveloped the entire Kongsang Gate had also crumbled and vanished...

Whether at the mountain gate or high in the sky, countless cultivators from the outside world surged in every instant. Their ferocious faces were filled with madness and cruelty, but even more so with greed and lust.

In front of a quiet and elegant pavilion, compared to the carnage and bloodshed in other parts of Kongsang Sect at this time, this place seemed like a paradise.

Ye Feng, Du Fan, and Guan Jing stood in the courtyard of the pavilion, each with a different expression as they looked at a person in front of them.

"Brother Ye, the inner disciple who lured me out of the Spirit Garden that day... it was her." Du Fan could already guess what was going on from Ye Feng's complicated expression. He sighed and said in a low voice.

Guan Jing stared wide-eyed at the beautiful woman in front of her, without saying a word.

In fact, with Ye Feng's intelligence, he had already made a judgment when he first saw this person upon arriving here. Now, upon hearing Du Fan speak, his gaze towards this woman instantly turned icy cold.

The person in front of them was a woman dressed in the inner sect attire of the Kongsang Sect. She was eighteen or nineteen years old, with a beautiful face that was elegant yet refined. She was the inner sect female disciple who had brought Du Fan to Wu Hao earlier.

"What are you doing here?" Ye Feng asked the woman opposite him in a cold voice.

"Brother Feng, since you've already guessed it, why ask again?" The woman sighed, glanced at Ye Feng, and said softly with her lips slightly parted.

Du Fan could sense that there was a hint of affection in the woman's eyes, which she was trying her best to conceal.

"Don't call me that, I can't bear it! Xia Rui, the sect has treated you well, Cheng Yu and the other junior sisters from Cuizhu Garden have taken good care of you, like sisters, and yet you did such a thing! Have you lost your conscience?! You shameless woman!"

Ye Feng's eyes were practically spitting fire; besides anger, there was also heartache.

"Senior Brother Ye, it's the same for me, I had no choice..."

Hearing Ye Feng's merciless words, Xia Rui felt a pang of pain in her heart, as if pricked by needles. A hint of sadness flashed in her beautiful eyes, and she struggled, but in the end, it turned into a helpless sigh. Meeting Ye Feng's cold gaze, she calmly said...

"Haha, what a fine excuse for being powerless! Today, I sever all ties with you. Tell me, what did you get out of this?" Ye Feng suddenly let out a burst of grief-stricken laughter, his eyes turning red before turning cold and asking in a deep voice.

"To be honest, I am indeed an inside agent that the Burial Ghost Gate has placed in the Kongsang Gate. Besides passing on some messages, my biggest mission on this trip is to find an opportunity to steal two of the Kongsang Gate's three treasures: the Kongsang leaf and the Xuanmu silkworm."

After some investigation, I learned that these two items were most likely hidden here. However, I have already searched the area and found nothing. I know you don't believe me now, but that's the truth." Xia Rui regained her composure instantly and said in a deep voice.

"Since that's the case, leave your life behind." Ye Feng snorted coldly, flicked his wrist, and a silver sword suddenly appeared, which he grasped in one go.

"Senior Brother Ye, I am no match for you, but you can't kill me either. If you still care about our past relationship, listen to me: the fate of the Kongsang Sect is sealed. Don't make any more pointless resistance."

"The Illusion Cloud Sect is the largest sect in Qingzhou. All the high-ranking members admire you greatly. Only if you let go of your hatred, join the Illusion Cloud Sect, and save your life will you have a future..." A flash of pain crossed Xia Rui's eyes as she calmly spoke.

"Junior Brother Du, I'm sorry. What happened that day was not my intention. Now that I see you are alright, I am relieved." Before Ye Feng could say anything, Xia Rui turned her gaze to Du Fan, gave him a forced smile, and spoke gently.

Immediately, the goddess straightened her expression, and with a flick of her wrist, she grasped a flawless white jade ruyi in her hand. With a slight exertion of her five fingers, she crushed it, and a milky white halo immediately emanated from it, instantly enveloping the woman.

The milky white halo instantly obscured Xia Rui's figure, making it appear and disappear, giving people a sense of illusion.

"Trying to run!" A fierce glint flashed in Ye Feng's eyes. With a sudden flick of his wrist, a wind blade about ten feet in size shot out from the silver sword, piercing through Xia Rui's body in an instant. Now, he was clearly showing no mercy.

A bizarre scene unfolded. The wind blade failed to harm Xia Rui at all. It seemed to pass through a phantom, flashing past and striking the bluestone floor behind her. It immediately caused a violent roar, sending earth and stones flying, leaving a deep pit several meters in size.

"Brother Feng, so you hate me this much..."

Xia Rui could no longer hide the pain and sorrow in her eyes, and the reluctance in her expression. At this moment, all her emotions were revealed. She quietly gazed at Ye Feng with tender affection, and finally, with a few ethereal words, she disappeared.

"Brother Du, come with me, you are not allowed to come in!" Ye Feng's face was ugly. He then called out to Du Fan and gave Guan Jing a cold warning before pulling Du Fan into the pavilion.

Du Fan sighed softly, glanced apologetically at Guan Jing, and then followed Ye Feng inside.

Guan Jing made no comment, watching the two figures from behind, biting her red lips and remaining silent. After a moment, a resolute glint flashed in her eyes, and with a flick of her hand, she patted her storage bag. A golden light appeared, and a sword-shaped magical weapon was held in her hand, thus protecting the two outside.

"The two treasures that Kongsang Sect possesses are right here. We must never let outsiders obtain them, especially the Xuanmu Silkworm. There is only one of its kind in the world, and it is of extraordinary significance to Kongsang Sect." Ye Feng explained quickly as he led Du Fan to the second floor of the pavilion.

"They're still here! Xia Rui never imagined that such important things as the Empty Mulberry Leaf and the Mysterious Wood Silkworm would be placed here. We're lucky. If a Golden Core cultivator were here, they would have found them with a single sweep of their powerful divine sense."

Ye Feng looked up and saw a place, then immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said.
